I take it that's a 'no', then?

Never mind. My search for decent Burton ale must continue...

yay, how cool! Will def. stop by as soon as you're open for business.
Which Hauptgasse do you mean? Oberehauptgasse or Unterehauptgasse?

Sorry Obere 87 school boy errors will update the page soon.

If you say so...

Anyway, good on you for starting a new venture, I wish you good luck, pity I don't live closer to Thun.

I'm waiting to hear back from Marstons so maybe have hope....you will be the first to know.

easy boy .... easy

Will you be doing internet/mail order as well? I know there are a few other sites out there, but a little competition never hurt anyone, right?

If you're looking to stock British cheeses, I think we might be able to put you onto a potential supplier...though he may have contacted you already...

EDIT: BTW, best of luck with the opening.

Seabrooks crinkle cut salt and vinegar crisps
Cockles in brine


...........and a bottle of Pedigree/Abbot ale/Adnams to wash them down

Cockles in brine & winkles that would be nice where am I gonna get those what's german for Cockles?

Could you add me as number 2? The boys from Rugeley need their daily fix of Trent water.

English is taught all over Switzerland, not just in one school. And simply look round at the tons and tons and tons of British products sold in Switzerland. And most of the customers for that are NOT UK/US/AUS/NZ/RSA expats but Swiss people, many of them of course people who have lived for a while in UK/USA etc.

First of all I think you took that hint about the two mistakes simply the wrong way. You should not take such things personally but give a thank-you message to the "corrector" and adjust the entry as early as possible. I have been in the publishing business for decades, and many "correction-advices" were a big acid. I always tried my very best to stay relaxed, reply factually and thankfully, and correcting what needed to be corrected

Will you have Crumpets and/or English Muffins?
I've a good friend living down that way, I'll let her know you are opening up and if you have them, I'll make sure I visit more often as she knows, 'them's wot I like the mostest'.

I pass by the shop on the bus every morning, can't wait for it to open. Do you have a definite opening date yet?

Just a case of waiting for the goods from UK which involves all the paperwork being sorted, should be before the end of month deffo, thanks for your enquiry. where do you live then? is that the 21 bus I live in Gunten.

British Deli? an oxymoron?

Britain has some very nice food why don't you come along and see for yourself sorry we are not selling Greek food.

I told my husband about the shop who is over the moon ;-)
Here are the food's which would most definately be our shopping list! :

Definately bacon
Definately crumpets and golden syrup! (Crumpets are very hard -in my opinion- to make)
Some good curry sauces (Greeta's spice and stir sauce is very good!)
Stuffing mix, Bisto and anything to make a good Sunday Roast
Sausages
Cheddar cheese, Wensleydale
Vegemite and Marmite
Bird's Custard powder, angel delight, condensed milk
Mint jelly
Branston Pickle
Twinnings Assam tea
Porridge oats (maybe they sell them here already, but not seen them)

I had better stop there before I make myself too hungry!.....
We look forward to shopping there!

If you miss so much of what seems to be an essential part of your life style, why do you move to somewhere where it's not easily obtainable ?

British & Deli, now there goes 2 words that don't belong together

But I am sure you will find British people in Delis

Why can't you just open a Fish & Chip shop I would drive to the end of Switzerland for that! Maybe there is one.....must go and search EF now!

Any way....Best of British and if I am ever in Thun I will visit.

Don't belong together ? Possibly because you approach the thing from a wrong angle. The "cuisine" may not be world-leading, but look at sauces like the HP1. Look at things like English confectionary. English teas. English cheese. Whisky/Whiskey (Scottish/Irish). The Pub tradition. Good steaks (I usually order them "very well done / très bien cuit", and after having recovered from the shock, they serve it --- really good ) .

To move here ? Possibly because quite a lot of it IS readily available even if diffently prepared + packed + labelled

The market of that shop ? Sure, many expats, but in reality Swiss people who for a while stayed in the U.K. and learnt to love some British stuff
